Alchemilla erythropoda (Dwarf Lady’s Mantle)

 

 

 

 

 

Bright yellow blooms age to coppery red on reddish stems. The toothed and crinkled blue-green foliage is covered in fine hairs giving it a silvery glow. Shorter than the standard Lady’s Mantle, this species makes an excellent groundcover or container filler. Appreciates part shade in hot summer climates.
